VENTURES — COMPANIES THE STUDIO OWNS

INDEX: 02 LIVE

Built here.
Run here.

Tate Development builds and operates companies of its own. This is the studio's main work: each venture a commitment to an industry, run with the studio's name on the outcome and its own revenue on the line. Everything else the studio does grows out of these.

[02]THE MODEL—

Why a studio runs its own companies

[01]

The main work

The studio was built to run companies, not to sell hours. The ventures are the point: customers, revenue, and a name answered for every day. The rest of the work orbits them.

[02]

One venture, one industry

Each venture plants the studio inside an industry for good. Eureka put it on the royalty owner's side of oil & gas; each new venture opens another.

[03]

Judgment with consequences

Every recommendation a client hears has usually been paid for here first, tested in the studio's own companies, where a wrong call costs the studio its own revenue.

[03] OPERATORS—

Ventures pair with operators.

The studio designs, builds, and maintains each venture's product. Running the company day to day is a different job, and it belongs to someone who knows the industry from the inside: its customers, its people, its rooms. If that's you, or you know the industry where the next venture should exist, the conversation starts with an email.
